    Steve??

    I've seen reference to someone here named Steve, who rebuilds carbs.

    Steve who please?

    Thanks

                      Does Steve rebuild other carbs (say, on an '82 CB900F)?

                            I couldn't get the price list to open. I'm not really worried about money with this bike.

                            Ah, found it. $425 doesn't seem pricey to me for great work.

                              That's OK, Dave, you are not the first, and likely will not be the last.

                              So far, have only done GS carbs. My plate is rather full for the next couple of months, don't have time to take on another project.
                              If that other guy that was mentioned is in your budget, I'd say go for it.
